Opinion
NEW YORK INDIANS v. UNITED STATES.
APPEAL PROM THE COURT OP CLAIMS.
Announced May 23, 1898.
The judgment and mandate in this case, 170 U. S. 1, are amended.
In this case it is ordered that the judgment and mandate be aménded so as ‘to read as follows':
“ The judgment of the Court of Claims is therefore reversed and the cause remanded with instructions to enter a new judgment for the net amount actually received by the Government for the Kansas lands, without interest, less any increase in value attributable to the fact that certain of these lands were donated for public purposes, as well'as the net amount which the court below may find could have been obtained for the lands otherwise disposed of if they had all been sold as public lands, less the amount of lands upon the basis of which settlement was made with the Tonawandas, and less the 10,240 acres allotted to the thirty-two New York Indians, as set forth in finding twelve, together with such other deductions as may seem to the court below to be just, and for such other proceedings as may be necessary and in conformity with this opinion.”
